Stephanie and Jeremy Puglisi, authors of The Idiots Guide: RV Vacations, are a husband-wife duo that host the RV Family Travel Atlas and Campground of the Week podcasts. They travel around the country with their three children in their motorhome, documenting their thoughts and travels via their podcasts and blog. Their podcasts are friendly and upbeat and everything they say is full of enthusiasm for the RV lifestyle. Most of their episodes are an hour long, and this past month they did some “bite-sized” episodes titled, “RV TV Shows to Binge Watch When You’re Not Camping” and “Creating Your RVing Budget: Managing the Costs of RV Ownership and Travel.” Listen to their podcasts here.

Janine Pettit encourages women to get out and camp and to do things on their own on her podcast, Girl Camper. She is a frequent public speaker and writes for the Go RVing blog as well. She’s an ambassador for the Girl Camping movement and her podcast, Girl Camper, features Janine as she explores the country in her 1966 Go Tagalong Travel Trailer. She tells stories of her travels and brings on fascinating guests – from fellow RVers to industry insiders. You can listen to her podcast via iTunes!

Until 2017, John and Kathy Huggin were the hosts of the RV lifestyle podcast, Living the RV Dream! Together, this jolly couple tackled every topic possible when it came to RVs. They logged over 300 episodes that included personal stories, interviews, and special live episodes. They also read letters from listeners who would write to them asking advice about their RVs and listeners also would share stories from life on the road. Last year, they sold their rig and decided that without actually being on the road full time, they decided to pass their podcasting torch on to Robert Morales, their friend and fellow full-timer. Expect a fresh new voice and maybe some accompanying video content in the episodes to come! Check out more info about the Huggin’s transition here.
